What is "Bad" Science?

No, he wasn't.

Data compiled by the Office of National Statistics (ONS) in the U.K. had shown that children who received the Covid vaccine were 4,423 percent (over 44 times) more likely to die than children who did not get the shot.

COVID Vaccinated Kids 4,423% More Likely to Die Than ‘Pureblood’ Kids

The shocking figures were revealed in a UK government report.

Link us to an actual analysis of the data that shows this, not just a bald claim with a link to raw data. How did they come up with this number.
Remember that this OP is about bad science and if you cannot provide this link, you are practicing bad science.

Proof of the truth of the divine would naturally be found in phenomena that can't reasonably be explained by mundane causes. Archaeology is the wrong discipline for that and history, while useful, is not a great fit.

No, that is pretty much the definition of the god of the gaps argument. Lightning once fell into your category. Was lightning proof of Thor?

Yes, I started replying to you and diverted to him. Getting back to your argument:


The origin story is verified by it's prophetic nature. The Isrealites did adopt some Canaanite practices, but this resulted in many of them losing their identity in the diaspora.

If you are really interested in the truth, you should perhaps read The Bible Unearthed: Archaeology's New Vision of Ancient Israel and the Origin of Its Sacred Texts, a book by Israel Finkelstein, Professor of Archaeology at Tel Aviv University, and Neil Asher Silberman, an archaeologist, historian and contributing editor to Archaeology Magazine.

Finkelstein and Silberman argue that instead of the Israelites conquering Canaan after the Exodus (as suggested by the book of Joshua), most of them had in fact always been there; the Israelites were simply Canaanites who developed into a distinct culture.

Yeah, I've heard that. What are your magical powers? What actual, verifiable access do you have to anything that is not mundane?

I've had four and still waiting for any even vaguely scientific evidence to support your arguments. To whit, your next post is about believing your position just because you think it works and it hasn't yet been proven ridiculous. This is the epitome of an example of the OP.

I wonder why some members simply cannot ever find a source that doesn't tell lies, all while sounding all dramatic and saying things like "death vaccine?" Is truth anathema? Or is that it just doesn't say what you'd like it to say?

Astrazenica supplied over 3 billion doses world-wide -- I had 2 of them. And it was pulled for no other reason than there wasn't enough demand to make it profitable -- at the request of Astrazenica itself, not because of any undisclosed risks. There was a world over-supply of COVID vaccine, and it was unprofitable for Astrazenica to continue to produce it.

One giant indicator of bad science is the habit of drawing conclusions from the data gathered. The scientific process involves generating a testable hypothesis from the data but NOT DRAWING CONCLUSIONS. So whenever you see or hear someone positing conclusions about 'true reality' based on data derived via science, you should understand that you are witnessing bad science (and weak philosophy, as well).

Data can be used to draw hypotheses, which are the basis of tests that can lead to conclusions.

Conclusions themselves aren't absolutes. All science is a work in progress. The justification for science is not that it can make absolute statements, since it can't, but that the statements it makes work in reality.

The statements of supernatural belief may have social benefits for their particular tribes, and may (or may not) be the incentive for wider social effects, as with hospitals, care for the aged, and charities; but it was astonishing to see the number of right-wing believers who opposed Obamacare (and here's a toast to the memory of John McCain!).

Do you really expect that ANYONE woudl take a video titled "Humanity Held Hostage by New World Order" seriously???

They babble on about the massive number of people dead from a killer side effect but in reality the low platelet counts side effect occurred in 0.0007% and the side effect was known 4 years ago showing that the decision to stop producing the vaccine in May had nothing to do with the any side effect.

More bad science from you.
